Mary C asked:


With all the mortgage rates dropping, I’m considering refinancing my home loan. Do I have to put a 20% down payment again to avoid PMI even for a refinance? My concern is that if my montly payments get lower, but now I will have to pay PMI, it might be more feasible for me to just not refinance, since it nets out to the same, and I don’t plan on living at my current home for 3 more years.
